Committee on the Recruitment Policy and Selection Methods for All India and Central Services (Satish Chandra)
Why constituted?
- It gave its report on the recruitment policy & selection methods of All-India & Central services.
- It focussed on the process of examination.
Major recommendations are:
- 1st stage of recruitment, i.e., preliminary examination to be conducted, to weed out non-serious candidates.
- Mains examination next, to test the analytical & logical understanding of the candidates in their optional subjects.
- Finally, the Interview round adjudges the personality traits of the candidates.
Recommendations and Status of Implementation:
The committee judged the scheme of joint examination in the light of the following issues:
- Whether the preliminary examination can screen a large number of candidates to a manageable number,
- Whether the main examination has ensured a meaningful competition among such candidates,
- Whether the scheme of examination has any bias in favor of any optional subject or group of optional subjects,
- Whether it has been able to test the intellectual attributes and higher faculties of mind of the candidates, and
- Whether it has been able to test the candidates' social traits and mental alertness required for higher civil service.
- It suggested inclusion of essay paper.
